Government-Backed Loans for SaaS Growth
The Growth Guarantee Scheme provides SaaS platforms and other small UK businesses with access to loans that are 70% backed by the government. This support helps SaaS companies access funding for growth activities such as marketing, product development, and hiring without needing to provide personal guarantees based on their residence.
Variety of Finance Types and Repayment Options
Eligible SaaS businesses must be UK-based, trading for at least two years, and have an annual turnover up to £45 million. The funding can be used for any legitimate business need, making the scheme suitable for everything from user acquisition to improving cash flow and scaling operations.
Variety of Finance Types and Repayment Options
SaaS platforms can choose from different types of finance—term loans, overdrafts, asset finance, and invoice financing—with flexible terms of three months to six years. Many SaaS financings are revenue-based, meaning repayments align with company income, reducing the risk of repayment pressure during slower periods.
